Cranberry Apple Coleslaw image

I adapted this from a recipe I found on here. I wanted to use up some apples and an open bag of leftover coleslaw. This recipe is simply delicious with some nice clean fall flavors. This is nothing like the creamy wet coleslaw you would get at a deli. Its light, crisp, and crunchy.

Tips:

  • For a sweeter coleslaw, use a sweeter variety of apple, such as a Honeycrisp or Gala.
  • If you don't have fresh lemon juice, you can substitute bottled lemon juice. Just be sure to use half the amount, as bottled lemon juice is more concentrated.
  • To make a vegan coleslaw, omit the mayonnaise and use a plant-based yogurt instead.
  • For a more colorful coleslaw, add some shredded carrots or red cabbage.
  • Serve the coleslaw immediately or chill it for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

Lemon apple coleslaw is a refreshing and flavorful side dish that is perfect for summer gatherings. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a light and healthy side dish, give this lemon apple coleslaw a try. You won't be disappointed!
